[QUOTE="Cowcatcher, post: 3965311, member: 43171"] One main reason I prefer a bolt over a semi is I can shoot and immediately following that I have a “very safe” firearm if I do nothing more to the firearm. Most of my shooting is done at critters. There are definitely pros to a semi but I’m just pointing out what fits my shooting. When I use a semi then I must be sure to flip the safety between shots. I’m going to be driving until I find another target. Say I’m done for the day then I’m probably going to drop the mag, empty the chamber, put the ejected round in the mag, close the bolt and re-insert the mag before leaving the rifle stored before the next day. With a bolt action I just load when a target presents itself most of the time. Then take the shot and don’t worry with the state of the firearm until next time. If a guy is just shooting and not dealing with other distractions of the world then he probably doesn’t see it like I do. [/QUOTE]
